In the Shadows, by Mercyful Fate

In the Shadows

by Mercyful Fate

supported by

Turd Ferguson Possibly the best comeback album in the history of metal. Favorite track: Egypt.

adam2aces I highly recommend the 'Songs for the Dead' Blu-ray and digital album. The live recording of Melissa blows the roof off the original recording! It took fearless strength to come out in King Diamond's day and flip the cross and we are seeing a conservative push towards the old witch hunts starting to re emerge. Support true freedom! Hail KD! Favorite track: Room Of Golden Air.

Bloodied But Unbowed "Melissa" and "Don't Break the Oath" usually get all the attention for Fate, but "In the Shadows" is pretty darn good too.

lgriffin1991 There's as thick an autumnal Halloween atmosphere with this as with anything else you've heard. This is wonderfully heavy and well played. Atmospheric and evocative, too. Favorite track: Egypt.

i take so much pride being named after this absolutely fantastic album made by the king himself, without this album my love for the dark would not be the same. Was recently gifted this album by a dear friend of mine, on a beautiful blue pressing and could never be more happier. with owning it on cassette and CD, hearing it finally on vinyl is a whole new world. abigaillavey666
